Default cell format

I've set a column of cells to be formatted as mm/dd/yyyy,
however when i move the date value of one of these cells
to a string variable, the value in the variable is
displayed as my regional option for the short date which
is mmddyy. Is there a way around this. Can you set the
regional system options with VBA and then reset when the
spreadsheet application is closed?

Thanks,
Mike
